Description

Sklar Ribbon Stitch Scissors are used for suture removal. These scissors have short blades with sharp, fine tips that are used to snip the suture rather than lifting the suture slightly first, as with Spencer or Littauer stitch scissors. These Stitch Scissors should not be used for cutting tissue, but may be useful for delicate or micro-dissection. They also feature Ribbon Style Finger Ring handles for increased comfort and improved hold. This product is straight with smooth, sharp/sharp tips and a length of 4 inches.
